Original glass nail files

Germanicure Crystal Glass Nail Files are anything but ordinary. It starts with the finest 3mm thick Bohemian glass, tempered, a patented design, and handcrafted, but all of this just barely scratches the surface of what makes our files special. Here is why you will never need another nail file.

SUSTAINABLE –

No abrasives are sprayed or glued to the surface like most other files, allowing them to never lose texture and to last a lifetime. No waste, no pollution, and no overflowing landfills with disposable files.

ECONOMICAL –

Our file will last a lifetime. No need to waste money on cheap, disposable, scratchy paper files. Our file’s cutting surface is covered with a lifetime warranty.

SUPER SEALED -

Our glass nail files are chemically etched using patented technology, which creates a truly uniform surface. This file smooths and seals the nail surface without chipping, tearing or gouging. It actually makes your nails healthier!

OMNIDIRECTIONAL -

It’s true, our hi-tech files break the rule you have been told about filing in only one direction. Our glass files actually help polish and seal your nails with every directional stroke!

WET OR DRY -

Our glass nail files can be used wet or dry, and even on calloused areas of the skin.

STERILIZABLE -

This feature makes our glass nail files the healthiest choice for nail professionals. There is no need to open a new paper file before servicing each client.

CHEMICALLY QUENCHED –

Our special hardening process increases strength up to 90% making this file very hard to break.

LEATHER PROTECTED -

Leather is a naturally cushioning material. Each file comes in a soft leather case which helps protect your file against breaks, nicks and scratches.

Get a closer look


Did you know that filing is actually healthy for your nails? You just need to use the right tool for the job. Our crystal glass files, made of 3mm thick bohemian glass, are chemically etched with a gentle texture that seals your nails instead of sanding them. Our files can be used wet or dry, in any direction, on natural nails or acrylics. The permanently etched texture is versatile; simply press more firmly to shape and remove excess nail, and more softly to finish and smooth edges. The thick glass is sterilizable, anti-fungal, and anti-bacterial, so these files are not just heirloom quality, they are also the healthiest choice for your nail care.

Chemically etched glass

Handmade of tempered glass that itself has natural antibacterial/anti-fungal qualities and is durable enough to hold up to a chemical bath or steam sterilizer (up to 170 degrees Celsius).

The permanent texture is chemically etched directly into the surface of the glass leaving behind fine, evenly placed rounded peaks. No abrasives are sprayed or glued to the surface, like most other files, allowing them to never lose texture and to last a lifetime.

The super fine, even surface is the healthiest choice for a nail. Without the danger of sharp, inconsistently glued abrasive crystals, our files do not cause microscopic frays and gouges and even allow filing in any and all directions.

Spotting Fakes

We know, your friends will tell you that you can get the “Same file” as ours for about a dollar on eBay or Etsy. We also know there are countless fakes out there, some even including a fake patent sticker. Here are a couple of ways to identify a fake.


Packaging

We will never use plastic in our packaging, and here's why. The world produces 300 million tons of plastic every year, and only 10% of that is recycled. The rest ends up in landfills and oceans, leaking pollutants into the ground and water sources while taking centuries to decompose. Please join us in helping our world, one piece of plastic at a time.

Guilt  
Free

Perhaps the best way to impact the world's waste problem is to buy everything unpacked. Until that time we use the bare minimum packaging of plain, hand - stamped kraft envelopes.

No phony smiles here. We value ethical practices and an ecologically sustainable future for our children far more than profit. We believe practices contrary to these ideals are repulsive and we utilize no child labor, no planned obsolescence, no factories that have reprehensible waste and which have no environmental conscience. The highest quality, longevous products can be affordable to regular people...in fact, anything less is unaffordable.

With these tenets as the core of our business practice, we have created the finest precision made manicure products in Solingen, Germany..."the city of blades" - world renowned for its impeccable steel manufacturing. Meticulously engineered with pride, care and attention to detail by adult artisans, our unique designs prevent wear, so the same product can last your family for generations. Specifically designed to provide smooth cutting instead of crushing, trimming instead of ripping, and finite shaping instead of micro-tearing, our products provide you with the healthiest treatment for your nails.

Loving yourself is the first step to loving others. We are Germanikure. Welcome to our family.
